Mutant Year Zero

Here is the first public release.
This is a low automation ruleset.
Health has limited Automation - there is no automatic application of damage.

To make rolls you double click the Skill (will auto add in Attribute) and Gear or Attribute and Gear and then the Black Dice.
You can adjust each pool up and down with the arrows.
To Push a roll double click the Orange dice. Once you adjust your pools you can no longer push the roll.

Combat is fairly basic - determine Successes/Hits and reduce by Armore before applying.

I think thats about it.

Nice work!

So cool to see this happen. i'm going to be using this for sure.

Id love some feedback. Its had very limited exposure to live play.

i'm going to try to play with this ruleset this weekend. i'll provide some feedback after. Thanks again for building this.

Thank you for doing this Damned, amazing work as always. I'm going through adding content from the GM screen and book and there are a lot D6 based tables. Can we have a stock D6 re-added to the available dice please?

Oh and another little request regarding Items. Could we have Range added as a drop down list with the following entries as per page 82 of the core book:

* Arm's Length
* Near
* Short
* Long
* Distant

Vehicles need a tweak too, can we have the stats as per page 199 of the core book too please?

* Bonus
* Armour
* Resilience
* Occupants

Thank you!

Where should this drop down be please?
I can add stats but I have not yet learned how to make vehicles combat ready...

Could the drop down be added to the top of a weapon item type. Thank you for re-adding the d6. Just having the stat fields on the vehicles would be good enough for the moment.

With the D6 re-added - big thank you - could you add D66 and D666 to the custom dice options on it please as they're mentioned on page 11 of the core book? The D666 is needed for the Artefact and Scrap tables, while the D66 is used on lots of the Zone creation tables. So glad you've brought the ruleset to FGU, I bought it for Foundry and have hated running it on there. Can't wait to get some of the content in and move our game over to FGU.

The d60 and d600s are already there.

try
/roll d6+d60
/roll d6+d60+d600

requested changes to gear/weapons and to vehicles have been made

But if I want to add them to a D66 or D666 as the dice for a table I can’t find a way to do it. I’ve done what you’ve suggested by adding them into a chat box in a Story entry just to roll correctly on the tables. Problem comes though when you want to use Story Templates or nested tables. If the could be added on the other entries on the D6, maybe in place of d0 and d2? Thank you for the other changes.

Understood. Ill add them to radial menu. Might not be for a couple of days.

You can access all the MYZ dice from:

Right Click the d6 then left or right click the Custom Dice then left or right click any of the custom dice there.

Thanks you for adding the D600 and D60. For those who don't know, to make a d66, drag a d6 to an empty slot at the bottom and then drag a d60 to the same slot. Once you have the dice pool there you can drag it to dice slot on a table or sheet.

There seems to be a problem with skills listed on the character sheet. When click on the item to open it on the sheet we don't get the lower text field and the console throws errors.

Attachment 54675

Same skill opens without an issue from the Skills database.

I have an odd issue with nested tables, in this screenshot Sector Environment is the master sheet.

Attachment 54682

We roll a 62 on the Sector Environment, this triggers the following:
a, Text = Derelict Ruins
b, Roll once on the Ruins table
c, Roll once on the Threats table
d, Roll once on the Artifacts table

b, We can see in the chat that it rolls a 2 on the Ruins table, this results in a roll on the Ruins Industry table. It rolls and comes back with the text for the Swimming Pool. So that bit works as expected.

c, Next it rolls on the Threats table but this is the odd thing, it does it twice and for the life of me I don't know why.

d, Resolves the artifacts table correctly with a single roll of 7.

Any ideas as to why it's rolling twice on the Threats table?

Finally had a bit of chance to look back into this ruleset. A couple of little feature request with regards the NPC sheet, there's a few fields that are needed:

* "Know the Zone" - See page 171 note box at the top of the page. This is a modified value associated with each an NPC type. It would be good if we can drag this modifier from the field to the dice modifier.
* "Not Identified" - Could we have the ID text field implemented on the NPC sheet?

Unfortunately it looks like multi-column tables with story templates are still broken but I'll ask Jim Socks about that. Once the story template issue is fixed and the above two items are in place I think I can put together a pretty solid story template to generate zone info on the fly.

Can I make it clickable to add to modifiers rather than draggable?
I seem to have missed your previous message as well - are these things still outstanding?

Clickable works too for the modifier, thank you. Should the the ID text field be available on the sheet as I can’t see it? I did blow away all my modules and extensions and do a clean pull of them about a week ago. The tables on their own work fine.
The issue comes when running the multi-column table I’ve put together via a story template; 1 in 6 times it gets no information returned. I don’t believe it’s a data entry problem but have no way of being able to debug what’s going on, I’ve messaged Jim Socks about the template issue.

I think this is happening because of the [brackets] in Threats Table.

Oh I blew the lot away and recreated as it was driving me nuts, I did remove those brackets a while back. I'll ping you a link to the module that shows the problem. There is just one Story Template, just run 10 times or so and you'll see the error with the generated content.

Thank you as always!

Where/how do you roll Know the Zone?

Sorry - never played the game. Need to understand what roll uses a modifierstack?

"KNOW THE ZONE
When the PCs meet a threat in the Zone, they can roll for the Know The Zone skill tto know something about it. For every threat in the Zone, there is a modification to the roll, depends on how rare the threat is and how alien it is to the People."

The values can be positive or negative.

That doesnt really tell me how this actually works in game.
The current rolls dont look at the modifier stack.

SKILLS - KNOW THE ZONE (WITS) The zonelands beyond the Ark’s borders are unknown wastes to most of the People. But there are some individuals – mostly Stalkers and some daring Chroniclers – who have ventured out and seen what is out there. Roll for Know the Zone when you encounter some creature or phenomenon in the Zone and want to know stuff about it. The GM will give you a modification depending on how rare it is (Chapter 13). Failure: You have no, or the wrong, idea. The GM can feed you false, or a mix of true and false, information (in this way, you will know that you have failed your roll, but not what information to trust.) Success: You know what it is, and its basic traits or effects. Stunts: For every extra / you roll, you get the answer to one of these questions about the creature or phenomenon:

How can it hurt me?
How can I hurt it?

----

When the players enter a new zone and I roll what they're going to encounter. If it's a creature/mutant type they've not encountered before I'll let them check this skill to see if they have any insight about it. Likewise when I describe a building or piece of tech they stumble across, do any of them know what an airport or a shopping mall is?

So if it is rolling using the MYZ dice then I think they have to manually adjust the dice using the arrows.
The number is displayed in CT now.

I have not played MYZ, but I have played three other Year Zero games. In the other games, that number is a modifier to the number of dice you roll.

To which dice - there are three different dice in MYZ.

Hey! Nice work here and thay you so much for let me notice regarding this ruleset :)

I'm sorry if I am being dumb but I own this ruleset in the Forge but I don't know how to create a campaign as I don't ruleset in my list?

You did do a "check for updates", right?
If so, it should show up as DBRMYZ in the Rulesets window.

Thank you and yes I did that but I don’t see that ruleset? I will check again tonight to make 100% sure.

Ok I just updated again and checked and I could not seeing the ruleset. I did notice however that the updater said and I had 9 Forge products and this ruleset was the 10th. So I disabled and enabled it, ran the updater and it worked and I could create a campaign.

However, I got the following errors when the campaign started.

Attachment 61090

Thanks for the report.
I will try to get to those.
You can probably still use the ruleset with those errors.
The first might require a right click and close as the button wont work and the second error only occurs at table load.

Thank you. I will give it a try.

So I tried this with the errors and it does seem to work ok. We did our first session tonight and it was fun and will playing each Sunday now for the next 10-12 weeks (we have a plan to try and play a bunch of different games for while).

I did notice another small issue. You can double click the number on Agility, Wits and Empathy to get the required dice at the top but this doesn't work with Strength. Not the end of the world again as you can manually add the dice but I thought if you were fixing the other issues you might want to do this as well?

We are actually playing MY0 GenLab Alpha which is based on MY0 and I am thinking of creating an extension to relabel some of the heading (eg. Empathy becomes Instinct, Mutant Points becomes Feral Points and so on) if you are ok with that?

OK I have fixed 4 issues and uploaded to Forge.
The problem is there was some data being created incorrectly - Skills Description did not have a valid data type in the database.
To stop getting the error when you open a Skill you will need to do the following:

Open Skills campaign tool and delete all skills.
Reload the GM tabletop.

Either create new characters (open old one and new one and just copy everything across
or
Accept you will get an error when you open Skills on the Character sheet.

The only thing that doesnt display is a generic description (See reference manual)
